Weight Gain, White Crusty Spots On Thighs, Spreading Behind Calves. Cause Of Worry?

I am a woman 49 years old. I weigh 163 lbs, 20 lbs of my weight gained since July. I just found several small white crusty spots on my thighs. Kind of looks like dead skin. The spots are differrent sizes, about 10 of them. I also found one on the back of my calf a few days ago. It looked black under the crusty part. I am seeing dermatologist in a few days but am alrmed.
